A handwritten cursive with a lively, bouncing rhythm and a slight rightward slant. Strokes read as smooth and pen-like with gentle modulation, rounded terminals, and frequent loop forms in ascenders and descenders. Letterforms are narrow and vertically oriented, with compact counters and a relatively small lowercase body against tall extenders. Connections are implied by the script structure, while many characters remain softly separated, giving it an airy, legible texture in words.
Well-suited for short to medium-length text where a personal, hand-lettered feel is desired—such as invitations, greeting cards, boutique packaging, social media graphics, and craft-oriented branding. It can also work for headings and pull quotes where its narrow proportions help fit longer words without feeling heavy.
The overall tone is informal and approachable, like neat journaling or a casual note. Its looping strokes and buoyant spacing add a light, cheerful personality that feels personal rather than formal or corporate.
Designed to emulate tidy everyday handwriting with a touch of flourish—prioritizing charm, readability, and a consistent script rhythm over strict calligraphic formality.
Uppercase forms mix simple stem-based shapes with a few more decorative constructions, creating a hand-drawn variety without losing consistency. Numerals keep the same written character, with rounded shapes and open curves that blend naturally with the letters.
